Vineyard in the heart of the Var

The vineyard of Château d’Esclans en Provence stretches along hillsides in the heart of the Var, near the spectacular Gorges de Pennafort, in La Motte en Provence. On the D 25, this beautiful road winding through vineyards stretching as far as the eye can see, known to connoisseurs as the route of wine, châteaux and grands crus classés. The original castle, of which only the foundations of the cellars have been preserved, was built before the 12th century by the Count of Provence. Inspired by the style of Tuscan villas, the current castle, built in the middle of the 19th century, stands at the end of a splendid alley of plane trees.
